I forgot to add the rear diffuser and grille being sprayed so total is now £225. :D

[Tin]

if i totalled the price of all my mods.. i'd have a breakdown.. lets say 4 figures very easily. :o

[AlpinaAl]

around £2.5g on the Alpina :(

I havnt totaled up the cost of the M3 yet as we are still building it,and Im not sure I wana know, but I would say over £12k at the moment.. :o

[AlpinaAl]

Please bear in mind that this car has been built to show people what we as a company are able to offer in the way of modifications

We have not removed any of the comforts but mearly tried to enhance an already good package. we have done everything from chassis to engine, and we have not yet finished... I will do a full write up on the car and costs envolved in another thread when she is built.

Plus I wanted a very quick road car to take to the tuner grand prix :D

[330-Singh]

I think I have spent close to £3500 on mods so far. I'm having a break now until I pay my credit card off! :eek:

[Tin]

Just noticed today the M3 CSL has a much smaller battery. Tin's cat's liver must have knocked a few grams off the M5 ;)

[RDG 40]

mine started standard when i got my mits on it, now its in its present state and all been done by dealer bar the wheels which Lee supplied so were taking a fair few thou

[MistaSmiff]

On average I think most of us could easily see 2K, alloys,tyres, suspension, ICE. Have you guys calculated labour costs with your mods ...... :eek: scary!!

[Ali]

Tin... 4 figures??? I'd add one more onto that one! LOL ;)

I'd say modding seriously isn't about what you've spent... its all about the excitement and the personal feel you get from it...

You could spend a tenner on a set of silver vision bulbs or ten thousand on some performance mods (Tin... ;) ) and get the same smile on your face...

Long live modding! :D :D

[AJ.]

At a horrible guess approx £19k, I'm gonna go and sit down now as suddenly I don't feel so good....

[Cannondale99]

I've got just over £7500 worth of audio equipment waiting to go in, however, I've had my fun with it in my previous car, and I could get round to selling it and spending the cash towards new wheels, coilover suspension, Eisenmann exhaust, CA-A exhaust manifold and other mods, :)

[whitey]

well my wife an,t goni see this coz if she did i think my bo****ks wud be on the chopping block but so far im not far of £3.5 k and ive only had it a year past may :eek: goni have to slow down :D :rolleyes:
